CHOICE TRUCK LINES CO
Do not book until these are resolved · 1 signal
How risk signals workAt least one fact in the FMCSA record should stop a booking until it is cleared up. Confirm the current record on Motus first; it is not a finding of wrongdoing. Authority and insurance are last known from May 14, 2026.
- Operating authority is inactive (last known)Without active authority the company may not haul or broker interstate freight for hire.
No cargo cover filed with FMCSA
Not a live check. FMCSA has not published a Motus record for this carrier, so authority and insurance show the last known status from May 14, 2026. Confirm on Motus ↗ before booking.
What to verify next
- Confirm authority and insurance on the official Motus record ↗: our copy is the last known status from May 14, 2026. Safety record: SAFER ↗.
- Call back on the number on file, (740) 979-6001, not a number from an email or load board.
- Check that the MC number you were given is MC717590.
- Ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.

How these rates are calculated
Period: Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Ohio average covers 110,540 vehicle and 182,379 driver inspections of all Ohio-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile ↗ · SAFER snapshot ↗

Questions about CHOICE TRUCK LINES CO
What does CHOICE TRUCK LINES CO's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for CHOICE TRUCK LINES CO (MC717590), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about CHOICE TRUCK LINES CO is old or missing?
Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. No insurance filings were found in the public data. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.
What should I verify before booking CHOICE TRUCK LINES CO?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 1609421. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (740) 979-6001, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC717590, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
